When a product is put on the market, we expect it to comply with certain safety standards. We certainly expect that the manufacturer or seller will take precautions to protect us from any unnecessary harm. Our expectations are even higher when the product is a vehicle made for everyday use that weighs a ton or more and is capable of speeds well in excess of 70 mph. Unfortunately, the cars we rely on in our daily lives are sometimes released into the marketplace with faulty parts or defective designs. Those defects can lead to catastrophic injuries and fatal accidents on South Carolina's roads and highways.

If you suspect that you have been injured due to a defective automobile, please contact the attorneys at Louthian Law Firm today at 1-866410-5656 or fill out the free online case evaluation form. If we believe a case is warranted, we'll seek to hold any negligent parties liable for the injuries they have caused. It is your legal right to ask the manufacturer and other responsible parties for money to cover your medical bills, property damage, pain and suffering and any permanent disability or loss.

A defect is an imperfection that renders the car or its parts unsafe for its intended or reasonably foreseeable uses. Some of the most common auto defects include:

  • Poor design, as in the case of SUVs, minivans and light trucks. Car models that are too top-heavy are prone to roll over, causing catastrophic injuries and death.
  • Defective tires. Blowouts and tread separations caused by faulty manufacturing or design can prove deadly at highway speeds.

In an auto defect liability case, the law may find blame with multiple individuals or companies involved in the manufacture and sale of a car or its components. The designer, the manufacturer, the supplier or the dealer may ultimately be found liable for any injury caused by the car's defect.

Defective auto cases require a thorough investigation by an experienced legal team to determine which individuals and companies should be named as defendants and which legal theories should be pursued. It is also essential in defective auto cases to take prompt measures to preserve evidence, document the chain of custody of the car, and to enable various expert witnesses to carefully evaluate the car that caused your injuries.
